Biochem/physiol Actions

NR2B selective NMDA glutamate receptor antagonist which appears to target the "polyamine site" on the NMDA receptor, setting it apart from other NR2B receptor antagonists. Possesses neuroprotective effects in models of ischemia, but prolongs the QT interval in patients; currently under investigation for acute and chronic pain.

Pharmacology, biochemistry, and behavior, 65(4), 611-620 (2000-04-15)
Current perspectives on the clinical use of NMDA receptor antagonists infer repeated administration schedules for the management of different pathological states. The development of tolerance and cross-tolerance between different NMDA receptor antagonists may be an important factor contributing to the

Measurement of drug release of a sparingly soluble drug by conventional methods proceeds very slowly without the aid of surfactants. Two preliminary automated methods were developed that increase sensitivity and accelerate such studies by working at very small reservoir volumes.

The discovery that glutamate's activity at the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor is positively modulated by glycine and polyamines has led to a new pharmacological strategy that NMDA receptor-mediated events could be antagonized indirectly at the strychnine-insensitive glycine co-agonist site (glycine(B) receptor)

This study characterised the pharmacology of [3H]-ifenprodil binding to the polyamine binding sites (PBS) on the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor channel complex on human retinas. These data were correlated with the known neuroprotective effects of ifenprodil and eliprodil. Specific binding of

Current symptomatic treatment for Parkinson's disease is based largely on dopamine-replacing agents. The fact that long-term treatment with these drugs is characterized by many side effects has lead to widespread interest in nondopaminergic therapies. To date, however, it has proved
